Decade-by-decade portrait grid

@blizaine challenged Nano Banana Pro to restyle their portrait for 16 different decades. Each tile keeps the same person but updates wardrobe, hair, facial hair, backdrop, and film treatment to match the era, making it perfect for storytelling sequences or timeline visuals.

Prompt

Make a 4×4 grid starting with the 1880s. In each section, I should appear styled according to that decade (clothing, hairstyle, facial hair, accessories). Use colors, background, & film style accordingly.

Recommended settings

  • Gemini 3 Pro • 4×4 grid
  • Nano Banana timeline styling
  • Era-specific palette locks

Execution notes

  • Keep the subject identity constant while swapping decade cues.
  • Reference film grain or color palettes from each era for authenticity.
